and ukraine's attempts to clean up its image before the euro two thousand and twelve football championships turned into a p.r. disaster after animal rights groups accused the government of burning stray dogs alive. and coming up next it's our documentary on one of the most infamous richest and most powerful criminal bosses in history pablo escobar stay with us for that. on the tomic of bogota airport a family looks out of place these are no ordinary people it's the family of pablo escobar the colombian cocaine godfather and the most wanted criminals on us. they had hoped to seek refuge in frankfurt but the german authorities immediately turn them back. to the escobar family comprises the some one top bloke in his arms his young system on the way out.

and bringing up the rear maria of a tourist couple escobar is right. there tired and bewildered and most of all they're scared pablo escobar has been on the run for sixteen months time is no longer the all powerful drug lord who for years had terrorized colombia. the public enemy number one lives like a hunted on a mole from his hiding place somewhere in colombia the drug dealer is powerless to help his family but escobar always had an achilles' heel his family his daughter his son meant everything to him. his achilles' heel is something the colombian authorities are planning to take full advantage of from the moment they check into a hotel the family is under constant surveillance they've become the bait. it's just a matter of time before the godfather makes

a mistake before going into the trap the police have set forth. is quite is ask about slip through our fingers too many times it's unbelievable it was incredible. but escobar used to bomb schools soup. markets anyway what if he. will get out and he knew all about the families of the police and you with them all those c.s.i. that follow those lives and how many brothers they. maybe

and sixteen years later maybe in his columbia second city one of its busiest and richest and the country's bread basket. sixteen years later in the city still has a bad reputation. the settling of scores continues but these days it's between small time drug dealers. and it's nowhere near like it was in escobar as time. as you well in college at the time of the humans

a mad house bullets for breakfast and lunch and bombs for dinner. but. you know what people die every day and every morning that the bodies near the mountains would call it public cemetery each day that because people would be mowed it off and just dumped on the open ground. there are a few people left but well you have to know where to look. so the toss is to find them. according to some want to best form

a lifetime of is still a lot of. little video from those yes' still exists. his name is john gyre of ls quiz alias popeye. police wanted posters back then popeye was not far behind his boss escobar when it came to the pecking order he was implicated in a number of murders sources claim that he's been serving time in prison for several gives what seems certain is that he was able to survive in bogota his notorious low modelo prison on home. life in the old prison was a daily diet of insecurity and frequent violence where the prisoners ruled the roost as cabal's former right hand man has since been spirited away to much safer surroundings. it takes a few more days to track down no one apparently knows where he is but the systems finally pays off. there is

a last some news. popeye's being held about one hundred kilometers from bogota in this modern detention center. it's a high security prison with murderers drug traffickers and hired killers among its inmates. no t.v. crews had ever been allowed inside before it was considered too dangerous but once again persistence pays off and an exception is made. a chance to talk one on one with pablo escobar as most loyal left time knows. and he's the best person to give a firsthand account of his former bosses life in the wrong. you know what made you have the time back in may they mean there were fifteen hundred people

looking for us going to be out of this bellagio is that alessio israeli is british the americans the colombian secret service the cia the d.a. . everyone was off to look at was get is not just because it's not the one that other hunters have been aboard i was never refused one of his bosses orders however ruthless they may have been he claims he was responsible for two hundred fifty of the estimated ten thousand murders ordered by escobar. once there was a very high profile woman that we will order to kill in custody not you know that and we shot and the intercontinental hotel but getting out of the hotel was tricky and that's what police had time to helicopter they opened fire and i was hit here in the offering i managed to get home and public himself came over to see me that's when i realized it was a friend not just the boss i had a friend not a boss. tell was an army of lambs led by a lie i was a lamb the boss was

a lion. by the mid one nine hundred seventy s. escobar was at the height of his powers. he was the leader of a group made up of his cousins and friends that ruled the drug trade along side with three hundred men an army of hired killers locally as the sea county us devoted body and soul to the corps these men created the now infamous cartel. a cartel specialized in cocaine. revolutionized the way the drug was transported any means was good by road by air or by sea. hundreds of kilos of the drug was soon reaching the united states and europe escobar never seen children ideas to ensure

deliveries to his best clients in the u.s. even had the submarine built in one nine hundred eighty escobar reached his senate becoming the undisputed godfather of the world's cocaine trade as ruthless as he was derek. barely ten years as had come a long way from a small time grave he had become the all powerful king of cocaine a godfather whose net worth of the time was estimated at five billion dollars. and almost as if to prove he could do what he liked he pushed the envelope to the limit by having his photo taken with his son outside the white house. he uses his profits from drugs to buy a real estate in miami florida under the noses of the american authorities. escobar becomes america's worst nightmare u.s. federal justice authorities demand his immediate extradition. he

formed a group called the study. for them also is a better coffin in colombia than a prison cell in the united states when he declared war on colombia because of the years. tradition we'd never expect that the sides of that war. escobar reveals his true personality a psychopath who orders the murders of everyone who might be involved in processing his extradition judges journalists politicians police anyone. during this period of terror an estimated ten thousand full victim to ask about his killing spree for some time we will go outside after obama. and see him body parts you're seeing small children infants that being killed simply because their parents were placed

into. such incidents but the colombian authorities to act and they decide to eliminate the godfather a price is put on his head and he becomes public enemy number one. for the. alias the doctor vanishes from site. a french t.v. crew that had been working on another story comes across as the bush. the subsequent interview is a major scoop and the first time a european media has ever filmed the drug traffic up. front of the camera escobar goes to some lengths to justify himself just don't follow a lot of. what we have to realize that we're living through the cocaine period in cocaine is inviting the well you know why because it's

a drug that's less strong or less damaging than the others there are drug addicts of because of a lack of education and discipline because you he did he mean it's the same with alcohol and there's no difference between someone sleeping on the sidewalk because of drink or because of drugs. or not because. the godfather goes on to pick up part of the american arguments against the cocaine trade see like ok right now it's cocaine that's considered a dangerous evil because the americans can't control it because it's the colombians of produce that that's the real problem. and that same year the many tell ships out three hundred kilograms a day of cocaine into the united states u.s. officials have had enough and again demand the extradition of the drug store. hunted in his own country and want to buy u.s. justice there appears no way out for escobar undeterred he tries to bargain for his freedom with the colombian government it's on likely bata.

in june one thousand nine hundred ninety one and assorted convoy of vehicles is heading into the mountains near to a place known as the catch a drought inside the vehicle and his gunman flank the godfather escobar has agreed to surrender and serve time but in a prison that he himself has built to his own specifications escobar is dictating the terms and his purpose built jail conspicuously has neither prison boss nor keys on the radio escobar explains that he has surrendered for the sake of the colombian people and it a moment i thought he could bring at this historic moment when our fighters are giving themselves up to bring calm to the country i cannot ignore the polls for peace by the last majority of a colombian people. and we gotto june one thousand nine hundred one when you.

got to draw is a five star luxury prison with all the comforts of home. and even better than most homes of the time as a state of the ot kitchen music sent. as telephones. outside there's a huge telescope which allows the godfather to keep track of police as they come and go as well as keep watch over his family who have remained in the valley below . during the day pablo and his associates have no time to get bored the cocaine and continues to grow. to look at that. the president was crime central it was where they control the drug traffic and the government was fully aware of the fact that when what was going on leaks out it causes a huge scandal with the president of colombia himself forced to explain it was not a joke what happened is such got basi deal be intimidation that we end up

discovered and that most of these soldiers were already war. bride but. the government insists he's served time in a real prison sensing a trap he refuses. one night as his friend popeye and a dozen henchmen escape. i'm going to escape for the friends where there were no police and i want all we want we must have left at about eleven at night it was very foggy outside when there was caves discovered a state of alert as declared after a year in his private prison pablo escobar has once again gone on the grounds. that the police realize they need to act quickly as the godfather is on familiar territory and every hour lost gives him the opportunity to disappear for good

nothing is left to chunks each house amid the and its suburbs a search starting with those belonging to his left town of. but by the morning of the twenty second of july nine hundred ninety two the authorities admit they've lost him as cabal has apparently vanished into thin air. here. in bogota the government says that sauce parades are barely twenty four hours off to his escape it sets up the block ale that was an elite unit whose sole tosk is to track down home and skybox its headquarters are in the city center the one thousand

strong unit is made up of highly trained and handpicked policemen and soldiers. the commandos make sure that none of them and not from medic and that all of them have a squawk to settle with escobar choosing those who have lost at least one member of their families to the gangsters hitman. the head of the unit as colonel hugo must tina is as methodical as he is i'm corruptible. but. his number two is major hugo i do yeah his role is to gather intelligence he's us tough as nails and farley determined. the americans send two of their best drug officers to work alongside the colombia is on the ground. who is the best of the best

in going after and we had all the resources we wanted by resources i'm talking about the the money the equipment. the intelligence d.n.a. at this time i created a. a t k o. wood says that we were we were targeting this bar all over the world. maybe even becomes a city under siege the special unit is everywhere with cock block to do as it pleases sweeping everywhere and such in every one. to begin with the dragnet turns up little more than weapons telephones explosives common and often made the un and the usual suspects most of them petty criminals. what the investigators are hoping for is the one clue the one informant who might

lead them to ask about. general public a lot of. those means are busy and those me going to be aberrations. the i'm going to bring people down from the yoshimi. the rewards on the televised appeals for information make little headway however as whoever might be tempted to inform on the godfather or his cronies knows fully well it would mean the death sentence and . as a result months go by and escobar remains as elusive as ever. despite the grind of the danger the such unit has to follow up every lead. off from the unit's intelligence take some to envy god or the sub of wesco grew up. people were hiding in a number published what was a robin hood for the people even that doesn't help a lot of help a lot of poor who built churches. get

a lot of money to two people so people idolized you know they were guarding him they were hiding. here in this house the police were hoping to round up a few members of the cots out. well . unfortunately for the police there arrived too late and it wouldn't be the last time. at least forces well paid informants yet there was still no breakthrough to catch escobar there's a change of tactics with priority now being given to telecommunications. the americans provide an awacs surveillance aircraft and a twin engine plane to track vocal frequencies it's the first time such methods are

used to hunt down one man. it means that colonel martinez and his men can eavesdrop on hundreds of telephone radio conversations day and night twenty four seventh's. then in march one thousand nine hundred three. we suddenly realize we have asked about talking to his son on his cell phone but the problem was that he was constantly on the move. for the twin engine plane that is constantly in the area of amending manages to locate the frequency used in the phone call. a plane was able to identify whether cool would be made from on the ground so i immediately traced the location on a map of the city to find the exact spot. but i think. the calculations show that it came from a house in one of many human smart the suburbs escobar has to be there and it's just a matter of rounding him up. to move in a dorm and the house has already searched.

inside there's a vulgar display of wealth and if you start off that a half asleep. this is a guy who does this house. has a name escobar often uses. the bed as a mate the bed clothes still warm as it seems was tipped off just in time. story the only people of the stuff like that in all of his houses. has now been on the run from his comfortable imprisonment for eight months. he's thumbing his nose at the special units. we missed at the beginning. may i venture say when mr moore good good twenty times you know we would pick him

up on the radio we'd have the search blocks around the area in were always you know would always miss and. as time goes by pablo escobar popularity seems to increase. evading the authorities by law co-design makes him into a hero. in the rundown neighborhoods the poor are all on his side. he thought oh yeah i got it pablo a hair he wouldn't even need to us i doubt he's welcome here any time in our heart he's welcome with open arms he will always be welcome. escobar also finds easy refuge with his cronies from the cartel and other traffickers on whose loyalty he can rely now more than a decade and a half later most i'm no longer alive. all that's left are some members of the

escobar family who alone know how the godfather managed to remain at liberty for so long. maybe they might finally told. according to some reports his son from pablo and his widow maria victoria have sought refuge in argentina. is brother roberto. and his younger sister. rina hostility. the escobar family had been untouchable for so long the brother and sister used to

go out quite openly these days they choose to keep a much lower profile. a local journalist helps out by providing the address of escobar sr. is this where mrs escobar lives. yes she did you know sorry she's just going out. ok we'll leave a message for her. from
